Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 20, 2012 It's a crossplane V8, so some American thing most likely. Judging by the lockwired main bearing bolts and the earls fittings, I'm guessing it's a drag car engine? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Overmind 10 Posted November 20, 2012 It is a 289cu small block Chevy. From a classic Ford Gt40 race car. Unfortunately it suffered oil starvation and seized at Lemans this year, but its a bit unusual so I thought I would share it. :) ---------- Post added at 8:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 8:26 PM ---------- This one to be precise.
